EMORY Is the name of . a recent arrival from the @ effete East who arrived e o in this city a few days |d ago, accompanted by an | automobile and an Investigating turn of mind. Mr. Emory carried the horse less carriage with him because he is an agent for a vompany which deals in such things. His disposition is something that he possessed for years, and has by long association be- come o identificd with him that it ac- companies him w ever he goes. Mr. Emory’s vehicle is a crackajack stration convince his informants that they were in error. Yesterday was the time chosen for the trip. and two guests were his companlons in_the ride. The party started up Market street and got along falrly well until the cor- ner of Fifth street was reached. There the first trouble of the day occurred. All the horses that had been passed along the street had merely contented themselves by expressing their disap- proval In surly glances. They seéemed to realize that at last they were ‘‘up against the real thing”—that the fate with which they had been so long threatened had finally overtaken them, and it was useless to g0 agalnst des- tiny. So they merely looked at the party as it passed in a hopeless sort of way, that scemed to say: “Well, you've got it on us. This Is our finish. It's no use for us to kick against the inevitable, But we've always treated you right, and we hope you choke be- fore you get through with the double- Cross you are attempting to give us.” But it was different with a baby car- riage at the Fifth street crossing. The carriage was )‘uung and impulsive. It took one look at the new fin de slecle conveyance, got wild at once and started to make trouble. It back- heeled the woman who was pushing it, shied to one side and, overthrowing the freight it was carrying, lay over on its two wheels. A policeman came to the rescue and tried to express his disapproval of the whole proceedings. Fortunately he was slightly cross-e; which affiiction so EMORY AND HIS AUTOMOBILE BREAK UP ‘THE PEACE OF GOLDEN GATE PARK ? : " CAN SEE MY FIiniSH. KINDLY Ay,,leED JuUT OF THE PARK BY AN OFFICER of sporting proclivities who were driv- ing in a buggy. The horse failed in his ambitious jump and a general mix-up was the result. When last seen one of the shirts was on top and the elderl gentleman was trying to climb throug! a break in the fourth bar. The automobile entered the park and - met with no opposition until a police- man was awakened at the point where the road opens out on the conserva- tory. Then the fun commenced. The *“cop” ‘motioned for the machine to come to a halt. Emory, mistaking him, opened the machine wide open. The motor sprang ahead like a thing possessed and the mounted officer, dlgfi:ns his spurs into his horse's flanks, pressed after it. The animal seemed to know that Its job was at stake and put In such good licks that horse and carrfage ran neck and neck at a two-minute gate for nearly a mile. Finally the officer, seeing that the automobile would socon wind his racer, unwound his rope and, swing- ing the noose high In the air, pre- pared to yank at least one of the auto- mobile party out of his seat so that he would at least have something in the way of a trophy to show for his trouble, As It was uncertain which one of the party would be the trecphy and as the trophy promised to be a pretty badly damaged one when It reached the ground Emory was prevailed upon to #low down and surrender.

Brewer and represented himself as a worm specialist. Not only has this quack managed to clean up near- Iy & thousand dollars by his dealings with those of eredulous mind, but his pathway throughout the country is marked by a Jong list of victims who have suffered se- vere physical discomfort as the result of partaking of his nostrums, in one instance a young lady who is suffering from con- sumption almost losing her life. 80 strong is the feeling of Indignation against Brewer that in case he is brought back to the scene of his exploits it s safe to pro- phesy that he will recelye a decorative garb not easily parted with. 4 Erewer appeared In town about a weel ago, and securing the names of many suf- ferers from various complaints, industri- ously went the rounds. No matter what | the diseasé Brewer always produced in- fallible »f that worms were the cause of the disorder. His smooth tongue sel- dom failed to secure money in advance, He mulcted his victims - according to their financial status—the largest amount so far reported being $25, but $i- was ac- cepted in several instances just as cheer- fully.

Of the others, Lawlor went out in one round, Regan and Schilling were each stopped in three rounds and the bout be- tween Higgins and Bell ended In a dis- pute In the first round. The ten-round | bout between George Baker and Willlam Martin relieved the monotony of the up- interesting bouts and satisfied the spec- tators. The declslon went to Martin on points, Referee McGinley ruling he had the best of the game for seven of the ten rounds. third round Baker made no at- tempt to fight and Martin bad' him re- treating all the time. In the third ;!:dkc: showed he could fight and develoj clever right hand. In the fourth both went at it give and take. Baker com- menced to jab Martin in the fifth round and soon had him bleeding badly. Martin_was game and, although pun- ished badly, was always aggressive.

Large, unwieldy flelds in racing were always prolific of upsets and hard luck stories, and the sport at Oakland yester- day furnished no exception. Several good things were given an airing, in two in- stances with more than moderate success. | The Elmwood farm's two-year-old Con- stellator, quietly backed from 25 and 3 down to 12, took the mile for all ages-in clever fashlon. He was ridden by Buch- anan, and after getting' away none too well gradually moved to the front, beat- ing Bogus Bill five lengths. The favorite, Allenna, with Jack Martin up, finished a close third. Mr. Fergusen suffered from an attack of barrier fright, some of his starts coming In for severe criticism. In the fourth event the webbing was carried away, and most of the boys, thinking it no start, be- gan pulling up. Discovering their mistake, all started for the wire with the excep- tlon of Jones, on Ben Ledi, who had taken the filly up to a walk. in the last race there was more complaint. Casdale was sent away flying, with Silver Tone, the plunged on favorite, and Gauntlet, second choice, hopelessly out of it. In all three favorites were defeated. The track was very fast, but the caliber of horses starting permitted of no record smashing. Eighteen maiden two-year-olds lined up in the introductory scramble, with. Lim- erick, the Daly entry, ruling favorite, S8aul of Tarsus, against which 15 to 1 was laid, led until the paddock was reached, where Morgan on the favorite collared him, win- ning by a couple of lengths. J. V. Hayes ran a good third. The Schorr people finally had F. W, Brode keyed up to a run, and a bundle of coin was bet on the colt to take the sec- ond event. Played down to 6 to § fa- voritism, he galloped home ahead of the 15 to 1 shot, Gundara. Giro, badly inter- fered with from the start, ran third. The colored confederacy were down, hook, line and sinker on Tirade in the sev urlong run following, and “Long- shot” Conley brought the shoes home to mammy. Ten to 1 was out against the Rosseau colt, and he led all the way, reaching the tape a length in advance of Stuttgart. Synia, the lukewarm favorite is either & morning glory or a false alarm, | never looking dangerous. Dan Hanlon's filly, Sly, had nolhin! to beat in the fifth number, and with Jen- kins up, won as she liked from Tiburon. Panamint made a fine stretch run, taking | ghow honors. Silver Tone was figured a ‘“‘moral” for the closing chapter, but Ferguson. by a wretched effort, dispelled the illusion. Casdale, a 12 to 1 shot, showed the way almost to the wire, where Horton, coming like a cyclone, nalled and beat him out a length. "Away tenth, the favorite, ran fourth, three lengths behind Lost Girl. Track Notes. The owner of Ben Ledl backed his filly extensively and felt somewhat affronted at the judges for replacing Himson with Jones. The colored lad had won on the filly at Tanforan. Still there is no deny- ing the fact that Jones is a far superior rider. Looking at it the other way, pos- sibly Hinson would not have been left at the post. If Mr. Ferguson had recalled the fleld, which he should have done, and what three-fourths of the riders thought he would do, there would have been no room for argument. ‘While W. Larzelere was engaged in backing his horse, Silver Tone,. off the boards,. Jim Quinn slpped some coin around the ring on dale. was away flying, while Stlver Tone might just as well have remained in his stall. uch is racing luck. Merry Boy, played from 10 to 5, was one of the most extensively backed horses starting in the last event. Spencer had the mount, and was left at the post. To-Day’s Entries.
